I read the steeple of Plath and
realize I am closer to thirty than 19.
Telling me I am now all-filled-out
here, personality and something
resembling a soul.
Like those characters you see in sitcoms.
A card carrying full-grown.
Real, live person! 50 more years
and maybe I can waltz into life
without insects eating at my back.
